First attempt at a pork loin.

I wasn't happy with the Cajun injector so I stepped up to a MES 40 Gen 1. While trying to decide what to do first in the new toy, I came across Bears apple pork loin. Sounded good, but let's try something different.

only using half, just in case.

hmmm, let's try pineapple and some sliced cherries. Then rolled it, sprinkled with Jeff's rub, wrapped and set in fridge overnite.

no explanation needed here!

in the smoker at 220°. Notice how clean the walls are? We won't be seeing that anymore.

Ok, I learned a few things today.
1. Bacon only needs a couple hours of smoke, MAX. It was too strong and it also stopped the smoke from getting to the loin.
2. Rub, roll and wrap the night before. Unwrap, add pineapple and cherries while the smoker is heating. The cling wrap was full of juice this morning. Pineapple pieces drained out overnight.
3. As per the missus, don't be stingy with the cherries.
